Cell Data - Incoming Call / Outgoing Call Correlation

Analysis

Okay - so here is the test from the call log where I find the following conditions:

1.) Incoming calls that WERE ANSWERED (calls that route to VM are handled differently)

2.) Outgoing call placed within a short timeframe thereafter (usually in under 10m)

3.) Compare the towers to see if it is either the same tower or adjacent sectors (overlapping like a C and an A for 2 adjacent towers)

Lo and behold, we have ~35 records that fit this criteria and a PERFECT 100% have a pattern on either the same sector or the adjacent sector (which is explained by movement during the intervening time).

Just another reminder on why Undisclosed does not want to give a full cell tower info dump....

Summary: Incoming calls that are answered (like the 7PM LP calls) have a 100% correlation to outgoing calls (which AT&T says are reliable) for the period of Adnan's cell bill. Basically, the network knows exactly which sector the phone is in and correctly routes incoming calls to that sector. Scary thought - but had Adnan simply let the calls go to VM, he might have gotten away with murder....

ETA: just wanted to acknowledge the work that u/ben_rumson did on this for the original 12/13/14 data a few weeks back that set out this methodology. He was the one that thought out this test and deserves credit for that.
